Ever want to play a game in the format of Survivor while wagering on which castaway gets voted off each week on Survivor China? If so, it's your chance to do so this season. (Even Marc's involved in on the fun!) Please contact, if online, me (Douglas) before September 20, in the TV Talk chat room for more details...

Good question. Last season, it was stated that "Happy Hour" on FOX was pulled indefinitely and never aired again. I'll reward points for an "indefinitely-pulled" show as if it were canceled. If it does happen to come back on the air, then the points for that show comes off everyone's points.

You'll see what happens when news of the first cancellation occurs, which should be soon!

Considering how the CW is doing can one of the cancellations be Dawn Ostroff's job?

With all the revisions from all the players, will you be posting the final entries once the deadline has passed?

Long-term suggestion, Douglas, but next year you should consider doing the reverse of this game, predicting what will be the first shows to get a full season pickup.

Just for fun, here are last season's earliest pickups:

Oct 6 - Heroes (NBC)
Oct 12 - Jericho (CBS)
Oct 13 - Ugly Betty (ABC)
Oct 16 - Brothers & Sisters (ABC)
Oct 20 (tie) - Shark (CBS), The Game (CW)

Need a ruling Douglas. Is it cancelled, for our game?
If not, how long do we wait?

Well, I could do a tentative cancellation here. But didn't FOX say the same thing about "Happy Hour" last season? That show never came back on the air, after it was pulled.

To me, I believe "Nashville" IS canceled and news of the first cancellation of the season happened today, September 25, 2007.

I agree. I think Happy Hour is still on a temporary...er...permanent hiatus.

Mork, your most recent roster was invalid because it chose four top-level shows. Thus, I had to take your previous roster, that involved New Amsterdam as your #2 show. You'll still be able to obtain points. Of course, your chances of winning currently are slim, however, mathematically it is possible to win this game despite not having your entire roster canceled.

The only two programs not chosen by any participant is Private Practice (ABC) and Gossip Girl (CW).
